About the UNT DALLAS GLOW RUN
This is an evening run through the trail system on a university campus, run under glow lighting. The route stays on campus grounds, so the surroundings are open and familiar if you know the place. Student-athlete volunteers staff the course, and the whole event is tied to raising funds for student wellness and athletics programs.
The finish area has the energy of a party rather than a race wrap-up: a live DJ, photo booths, a food truck, and sponsor booths are all set up and running after you cross. There is also a raffle and an awards ceremony for age-group and team results before the night is done.
